Sorry, but these guys beat Apple to the punch so they are not allowed to make one of their own.

Isn't that how it works?]]>Jun 10th 2008 10:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/10/princeton-follows-shuttles-minimalist-lead-with-19-inch-touchsc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/10/princeton-follows-shuttles-minimalist-lead-with-19-inch-touchsc/Jun 11th 2008 4:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/10/princeton-follows-shuttles-minimalist-lead-with-19-inch-touchsc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/10/princeton-follows-shuttles-minimalist-lead-with-19-inch-touchsc/Jun 10th 2008 9:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/10/princeton-follows-shuttles-minimalist-lead-with-19-inch-touchsc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/10/princeton-follows-shuttles-minimalist-lead-with-19-inch-touchsc/

Oooh touch screen! Pick up pen. Five minutes of child like writing on the screen. Arm gets tired. Back aches. Back to mouse.

Looks nice though.

Anyway, I don't think that would be ergonomic or comfortable. You see, dealing with a touchscreen phone requires the same effort of pressing a physical button i.e. raising a finger and sliding it around.

But raising an arm constantly to type on a touchscreen requires the use of the shoulder muscles, which would get tiresome really quickly. Unless this is for a tablet mini-laptop, I don't think this technology should be in desktop computers.]]>Jun 11th 2008 2:35AM
